We don't just fill positions; we discover, cultivate, and elevate elite professionals across Web3, FinTech, and emerging tech ecosystems, guiding them toward their next career breakthroughs.
Role Summary
On behalf of our client—a fast-growing, high-throughput digital asset exchange—we are seeking an elite Backend Engineer to architect and optimize their core matching engine and order management infrastructure. This role is pivotal in driving sub-millisecond execution, high concurrency, and absolute precision for their multi-asset trading platform.
Key Responsibilities

Risk Logic & Margin Engines: Implement real-time risk controls, including margin calculation logic, dynamic unrealized PnL tracking, and automated liquidation engines for leveraged trading products.
Performance Optimization: Profile, benchmark, and tune system components to minimize tail latency and maximize throughput (orders per second).
Liquidity Integration: Build and maintain high-speed market maker connectors via FIX protocol, WebSocket, and custom binary APIs.
Data Integrity & Ledgering: Maintain absolute transaction atomicity and system recovery using event-sourcing, in-memory state machines, and write-ahead logging (WAL).
Requirements & Qualifications
Core Programming: Expert-level proficiency in Go (Golang), C++, or Rust.
Domain Expertise: Demonstrated experience developing CEX matching engines, HFT execution components, or electronic brokerage systems.
Infrastructure & Messaging: Hands-on experience with in-memory data structures (Redis), event streaming platforms (Kafka), and high-performance RPC frameworks (gRPC).
Databases: Strong proficiency with relational databases (PostgreSQL) and time-series data management.
Systems Design: Deep knowledge of multi-threaded application design, memory management, lock-free data structures, and CPU cache optimization.
About the Client & Application Process
Our client offers competitive remuneration packages, performance-based bonuses, and the opportunity to build mission-critical infrastructure in a high-growth sector.
